In a program I am writing using MMA3.0, the function Max[] is used extensively. Is there any way to tell MMA that a>1; s>0; Such that Max[s, s*a] would return a*s Maple V has the function assume(). I know MMA does not have this, but is there any way to create it. The Integrate[] function takes the option Assumptions->{}. There must be a way to use this capability in other parts of MMA (I think). Any help is appreciated. ********************************************************** Hossein Kazemi School of Management University of Massachusetts Amherst, MA 01003 Voice 413-545-5629 Fax 413-545-3858
